I wonder if there's a function to allow for systematic transformations of rhythmic streams, like in the example below.

 

From a regular stream of 16th notes:

 

(s c4 d4 e4 f4 5q d4 e4 f4 g4 e4 s f4 g4 a4 f4 3q g4 a4 b4)

To occasional introduction of quintuplets, tuplets, etc:

 

(s c4 d4 e4 f4 5q d4 e4 f4 g4 e4 s f4 g4 a4 f4 3q g4 a4 b4)

 

Or:

 

(6q c4 d4 e4 f4  d4 e4 s f4 g4 f4 g4 5q a4 f4 g4 a4 b4)

 

 

Thank you!

 

The first that came to mind is Quantize.

There is a lot of functions related to Rhythm (type Length for search some)

 

The is also this one, based in my Doctoral Dissertation about rhythm.

Best !
